What Is Planned Giving?

Planned giving is finding ways to make charitable gifts now or after your lifetime while enjoying financial benefits for yourself.

Planned gifts are sometimes referred to as "stop-and-think" gifts because they require some planning and, often, help from your professional advisors. Unlike cash donations, they are typically made from assets in your estate rather than disposable income, and come to fruition upon your death.

"When I attended W&J I was fortunate to receive financial aid. To us, providing the resources necessary for student scholarships allows Judith and me to help the most deserving students. It gives us tremendous joy to meet the recipients of these scholarships."
